According to the best advices, she is ready to abandon the whole of her Manchuriah venture and'give ghar--K, antees. The rub will come on the question of indemnity, which, it is the consensus of opinion in diplomatic circles, Japan will exact, but if it should be made f\ moderate and sugar-coated so that it could be liquidated by the sale of the Chinese Eastern railway and the ces-, i) sion of Russian property and leases in the Kwantung peninsula, it might be 'J overcome.

Christiania, Norway, June 8.-^-N0r- way Wednesday declared her independ ence from Sweden. She also proclaimed that King Oscar, ruler of Sweden and Norway, was dethroned from his kiiig ^ship of Norway. I The action was taken at the sessipn of the Storthing. Following, it the Storthing empowered the present statte 'council to act as a government of Nor way until further notice, and to ex ercise the power heretofore appertain ing to the king. An address to the king was adopted, declaring that no ill feeling was enter tained against him, his dynasty, or the Swedish nation, and asking him to co operate in the selection of a young prince of the house of Bernadotte to occupy the throne of Norway. Although the action was anticipated, it caused considerable excitement in this city, on account of the anxiety as tc what action the king would take. The crisis became acute May 26, when his majesty, after three months' rest, during which the regency was confided to Crown Prince Gustaf, resumed the reins of office. The council of state immediately submitted to him the consular bill, which he. May 28, refused to sanction, arguing that any action must receive the sanction of the mixed council. The Norwegian council of state thereupon resigned, and the king refused to ac cept their resignations, as in view of the state of public opinion it was inj ipossible to form a new government. !pemonstrations were held throughout the country indorsing the action of the council of state.,- The consular-bill,- whil9 apparent^ pt little, importance.^ was^designed t|p ppen ithe' whole 'question of' 'foreign af fairs, which Norway desires to, mana Independently of Sweaen.
